7th Dist: Allen holds on to Senate seat

Republican Diane Allen, a state senator since 1998 and the deputy minority leader in the upper house of the Legislature, won re-election over Democrat Richard Dennison of Florence.

In this politically divided district, incumbent Assemblymen Herb Conaway and Jack Conners, both Democrats, also won re-election. They faced off against Allen's running mates, former Philadelphia Flyer and current broadcaster Brian Propp and Nancy Griffin, an attorney from Willingboro.

The district includes parts of Burlington and Camden counties. The three incumbents all were first elected in 1997.
